Boys, there ain't no free lunches in this country. And don't go spending your whole life commiserating that you got the raw deals. You've got to say, ''I think that if I keep working at this and want it bad enough I can have it.'' It's called perseverance.

Lee Iacocca
1924-, American Businessman, Former CEO of Chrysler

Name that Volcano!

Share I pre­sume that by now, the entire world has heard of the famous vol­cano in Ice­land that erupted leav­ing numer­ous Euro­pean air­ports closed and strand­ing peo­ple for days on end. But besides watch­ing the news and wait­ing for the vol­canic ash to pass, I don’t see much else we can do. Except maybe try […]

Boys Will Be Girls!

Share @aplusk says A+ for this kool video made by the Har­vard Sail­ing Team! And no, they are not affil­i­ated with the promi­nent uni­ver­sity or its’ sail­ing team in any way. HST is a NYC based sketch com­edy group whose sin­gu­lar vision and style have set it apart from other sketch groups in the area (according […]

Funniest Homeless Signs

Share Nowa­days, being home­less has become some­what com­pet­i­tive and it seems that home­less peo­ple have devel­oped a great sense of humor in order to help their cause. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not say­ing that being home­less is funny. On the con­trary… there is noth­ing amus­ing about a per­son liv­ing on the streets; it’s actually […]

10 Useless Inventions

Share A while back I wrote a post called “Weird & Wacky Inven­tions”. While research­ing all the thou­sands of inven­tions that have been made over the decades, I came across a few that were less weird and wacky, and more dumb or use­less. After all, for every inven­tion that makes it big, there about a […]

Is Your Mom on Facebook?

Share Is your mom or dad on Face­book? I think there are about 4 pos­si­ble answers to that ques­tion. THANK GOD NO!!! YES, SOMEBODY KILL ME NOW! YES, BUT SHE’S ON MY LIMITED PROFILE LIST! YES, HOW COOL IS THAT?! And if you were to take a sur­vey of 1000 peo­ple whose mom’s are on Face­book, I think […]

My Scores from “The Oatmeal” Quizzes!

Share Every now and then, if I can’t sleep, I’ll look for ways to enter­tain myself until my eyes get tired. Usu­ally, that entails: watch­ing TV, eat­ing junk food, read­ing comics, surf­ing the net to find new and inter­est­ing arti­cles to post on this blog, rear­rang­ing the draw­ers in my night stand, count­ing sheep, whatever…you […]

Balmbastic Lips!!!

Share As you can see [with a lot of my post titles], I’m a big fan of the whole “play on words” thing! I just fig­ure they’re more enter­tain­ing to read, plus they’re fun to come up with . But any­ways, on to the main sub­ject… Have you (and I mean ladies) ever used those […]

Google My Ride!

Share It may look like a psy­che­delic ver­sion of a “Pimp My Ride” mobile…but it’s not! It’s none other than Asif Hus­sain Shah’s taxi! WHO/WHAT? A Pak­istani cab dri­ver turned author. Just Google him and see for yourself…I sure as heck did! Oh, and if that’s not enough, you can also YouTube him and watch the 5 minute doc­u­men­tary [with […]

Top 20 Facebook Messages: My Hit List

Share It’s incred­i­ble the effect a Face­book pro­file pic­ture has on peo­ple. When you upload or update one [depend­ing on your pri­vacy set­tings], your entire list of “friends” gets to know about it — which in turn usu­ally results in a pleas­ant bom­bard­ment of either approv­ing mes­sages and thumbs up’s or sar­cas­tic remarks; but, let’s […]

Flying for Dummies [Updated]

Share I orig­i­nally pub­lished this post on Feb. 12 — but I’ve updated it by adding another pic­ture of the famous Kul­ula info­graphic plane as well as a few more cheeky labels. as if fly­ing wasn’t fright­en­ing enough these days, one air­line decided to scare the crap out of its’ pas­sen­gers even more, by painting […]

Vintage Advertising — Ah, the Good Old Days!

Share all i can say is that adver­tis­ing has come a long way since the olden days! some ads that were accept­able in the past, would not be tol­er­ated today, while oth­ers are sim­ply funny or silly due to our value sys­tem which has rad­i­cally changed. take a look at some great vin­tage ads below […]

Cheese Sculptures

Share many of us have some sort of hobby that we enjoy — whether build­ing model air­planes, rac­ing cars, knit­ting, col­lect­ing stamps, tak­ing pic­tures, blog­ging, what­ever… and some oth­ers have rather unusual hob­bies or pas­times such as mak­ing sculp­tures out of cheese. oddly enough this kind of “art” has grown in pop­u­lar­ity the last few […]
